Would like to discuss the process of starting and running a production grade loading setup. I see machines out there like Ammo Land and others that are easily run in a garage. Wondering if they are worth rebuilding or purchasing to create a side job investment to hedge bets as I plan...

All, I have a rifle in the recall for the 40x trigger. I read a lot of Timney, Rifle Basix, Jewell and another one or two. Which is your recommendation for a replacement and why please. I don't have any trigger replacement or experience shooting any of those mentioned so I'm hoping someone...

All, Just bought a nice tactical 308 in remmy 700 HB fashion. Got it from Redhawk rifles with a DBM kit and a B&C stock. Cleaned it with patches to run any manufacturing debris out of the bore. Just hoppes 9, some drying patches and a 3 oil drop patch down the bore to coat it as instructed...

Okay, let me paint the picture first. This just happened to my folks who had one of their renters die on the spot of a heart attack, so here goes. 1. Guy had several guns, about 10 or so. 2. Guy died at work of massive heart attack. 3. Guy had zero living relatives to pass his belongings onto...

What is the typical round count for a barrel before the precision opens up and moves it to the selling block or gunsmith for a new barrel? Assume a higher pressure rifle cartridge like the WSMs, 204 Rugers, and 22-250s.

Why do so many reloaders obsess over making the fastest round possible. Just asking. I'm more of an accuracy guy myself. Speed is nothing without control.

I want a hunting rifle and not a varmint rig. I know there may be sustained fire issues with this, but I'm gonna get rid of some pistols and shop for a 308, just looking for feedback on good choices. I want something I can practice shooting long range without the bench bruises or flinchies...

Went out with family and friends on Saturday to just go sit in the woods, make a fire and burn some gun powder. We were there about 4 hours and shot up lots of cans, metal plates and targets, great time. I absolutely could not miss with my 3" bbl 45 (ccw) that day. I went through about 100...

All, This is not really a gun related question. However, I think gun mfrs make the best coatings for resisting corrosion and I need a corrosion resistant steel coating in a big way. Currently, I work in solar and we manually coat a certain part in what amounts to gun oil and all sorts of...

I was on vacation when we got to the top of some beautiful vista with an ODOT gravel pile. I was looking east and I think I could see about 20-30% of Oregon at once. I was near Shaniko. I decided the gravel pile and stop was a good place to pull out my new (to me) Kahr P45 and put some...

All, Just got a used Kahr P45 and love it save the fact it doesn't lock the slide back on the last round. Handcylcing, it works as is should, shooting it does not. Know of any new magazine springs I can put in it. Wolff doesn't spec any out specific to the CW 45 and I'm wondering if...

I just received my 10/22 deluxe trigger shim and spring kit tonight in the mail. I chose the stainless shims for my stainless/synthetic rifle. Installation and a light fluff and buff took about two hours. Plenty of shims were provided to tune the side tolerances of the trigger and hammer...

I have a pistol for sale in the Portland, Oregon area. I've had inquiries from Washington residents and I'm not exactly clear how to properly transfer the gun, if I can at all. Do I have to ship through an OR FFL to a WA FFL, or may I simply ship the pistol to a WA FFL directly and have them...

Anyone have the nickel finish? Is it as good as the pictures you can find on the net? Any issues? I've read of a lot of issues with short barrel 45s and wonder if this is plagued with similar issues. I looked at several 1911's the other day from the Citadel, Taurus and some Springfields...

See this one yet? Cordoned off the kid for four days, hmm, wonder what he's drawing in incarceration. If not appropriate for legal forum, please move to appropriate venue. http://www.comcast.net/video/police-arrest-boy-for-stick-figure-drawing/1811296686/Comcast/1811264847/

I bought my son a Rossi youth 22/410 combo while he was still in the womb. About a month ago, when he was just shy of three y/o, we went out and shot it for the first time. He was the first to fire the gun. It all started by asking him if he was ready to bring his gun shooting, and the...

I handled a pawn shop 45s today. One a 3" Kimber CDP, and one a Colt of same size. Kimber had my nod for tight slide fit. $789 was a bit steep for the condition of either I thought w/o digging deeper here on THR. Which would you choose? And why? Are prices in check with used models? Oops...

Anyone bugging Springfield to raise the 10mm flag?

First off, I've done the search and read several threads already. But all are about a year old, so I'm starting a new one. I'm looking for a new scope to put on my Ruger HB benchrest laminated stocked .223 for coyote and squirrel shooting. My budget is $500 and I'm interested in all scopes...

Anyone seen this? I've been planning to do a guided hog hunt for a couple years now and I just stumbled on this map. http://128.192.20.53/nfsms/ I've never read anything about hogs in Oregon, my home state, but seeing this map, they have to be there somewhere. It's not like there's a fence...
